(sh2) (70 Day) This top pick from our summer sweet corn trials is an outstanding variety to kick off the season. The 7½" ears have great husk coverage and 16 rows packed end-to-end with delectably sweet, flavorful and tender kernels. It demonstrates strong emergence in cold soils and has intermediate resistance to northern corn leaf blight. Treated seed.

Supersweet (sh2) varieties have a very high sugar content and excellent holding qualities, up to 10 days longer than normal hybrids. Isolate from su, se, se/sh2 and QuadSweets™ sweet corn varieties as well as field corn, ornamental corn and popcorn varieties. For home gardens, stagger plantings at least 14 days apart. For acre-sized and larger plantings, space 250' apart.

When planting a combination of su, se and se/sh2 sweet corn varieties, for best results, select varieties with varying maturity dates to avoid cross-pollination.
